- **S**
-
- The aim is to form thirteen ascending sequences, each of eight cards
- regardless of suit, upon thirteen bases, themselves a complete sequence.
- (Double pack).
-
- 1 Lay out a full sequence without regard to suit in the shape of the letter S,
- beginning with the 7 at the bottom tip and ending with a 6.
-
- 2 Build on these in ascending sequence, not regarding suit, so that if you
- succeed you will have thirteen packets of eight cards each, crowned by an Ace,
- a Deuce, a 3 and so on to a King (which will appear at the upper tip of the S
- shape). For the purpose of this patience the Ace counts both high and low, ie
- it is built onto a King and is itself built onto by a Deuce.
-
- 3 Deal the cards from Stock, putting those that will not fit on two Rubbish
- heaps. There must be no shifting from one packet to another, and care must be
- taken not to overbuild, ie do not put more than eight cards on one packet.
- There is no second deal, so you should not block cards likely to be required
- soon.
